Lu Tongdao: "Can I ask the master what's the matter?"
Yan Luan then explained the conditions for Princess Rui's marriage and separation.
Lu Tong said with a smile: "Master is too kind. The biggest beneficiary of this matter is Miss Xie's family. I should thank you for the money."
Yan Luan smiled and said: "What you said is also reasonable, but Qing'er always calls me Mr., and I can't bear to let her marry Tao'er as a side concubine."
Lu Tongdao: "Master, give me a few days, I'll think of a way, if it doesn't work, then sell Zhuangzi."
Yan Luan said: "What can you do? So much money."
Lu Tongdao: "In short, I won't cause trouble for the master."
On the second day, Lu Tong invited Lu Bing and Yan Shuang to a restaurant, and said to the two of them, "Today, I invite Mr. Lu and Eunuch Yan, because our master is in a bit of a dilemma and needs some money. I want to ask you two for help."
Lu Bingxian heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I thought Brother Lu was looking for something important with me. It turned out that it was a matter of money. Just tell Brother Lu how much you need."
Lu Tongdao: "Not much, a total of 4 taels, just borrow 2 taels each."
Lu Bing smiled and said, "How can you borrow such a small amount of money? In this way, you don't have to bother Eunuch Yan, and I will do it alone."
Yan Shuang said: "Let me do it, Mr.'s business, I should do it."
Lu Tong laughed and said, "Both of you still listen to me, and each of you will pay 2 taels. Otherwise, it won't be a good thing for the master to know that you two can get 4 taels of silver so easily."
Both Lu Bing and Yan Shuang nodded, and did as Lu Tong said.
Yan Luan listened to Lu Tong talk about the origin of the money, pondered for a while, and said: "There is no other way, just use this. You can get another 1 taels from Feng Ming tomorrow, and a total of 5 taels will be sent directly to Wang Zhixiong's home." , and told the person in charge of his family that as long as he signs the divorce letter, the Ministry of Criminal Justice will release him immediately."
On the second day, Yan Luan called Lu Bing and Yan Shuang to the front again, and said: "I want to say that I will pay you back if I have it in the future. That's nonsense. With so much money, I can save it even if I don't eat or drink for a few years." Not enough, not to mention the family of the Yan family."
Lu Bing and Yan Shuang hurriedly said that it is right to show filial piety to Yan Luan, and there is no need to pay it back.
Yan Luan said: "I called you here. Apart from expressing my gratitude, I also want to remind you. I know that in your position, if you don't collect some money, you will offend others, so I never ask you these things. However, you must know what money you can accept and what you cannot accept, so don't make trouble for the emperor."
Both of them nodded in agreement hurriedly.
Wang Zhixiong's family took the money, and Wang happily signed a divorce agreement with Zhao Tao.Zhao Tao and Xie Wanqing's marriage is scheduled for one month later.
This day Yan Luan returned to the mansion and said to Feng Ming: "You take a few thousand taels of silver and send some precious jewelry to Xie's mansion, and say it is a congratulatory gift for Miss Xie's marriage."
Feng Ming laughed and said: "Master really loves Miss Qing, he specially sent gifts to Xie's Mansion before the wedding, so that these jewelry can be counted as Miss Qing's bottom of the box."
Yan Luan said: "The pain is nothing but pain, just call me Lord Yan when we meet."
Feng Ming said: "No matter how good the jewelry outside is, it is limited. I have a pair of bracelets. Master, take a look. If you still have them, give them to Miss Qing."
Yan Luan said: "How can I use your things as favors?" Before he finished speaking, Feng Ming had already left.
When Feng Ming brought the pair of Xinjiang mutton fat white jade bracelets in a sandalwood box to Yan Luan, Yan Luan immediately recognized this thing that he had seen before.After picking it up and looking carefully, it has been confirmed that this is the pair that Xintai paid tribute to in Xinjiang in the eighth year.
Yan Luan held the bracelet and said with a smile: "The emperor rewarded you?"
Feng Ming said: "Yes, although I don't have much experience, I also know that this is not something I can wear. So after the emperor rewarded me, I kept it carefully and never wore it."
Looking at the bracelet, Yan Luan remembered a past event.
In the eighth year of Xintai, Zhao Xuan got married, and Xinjiang paid tribute to a batch of high-quality suet jade jewelry.Zhao Ying was the regent at that time, so he took his second assistant Xie Zihu, Yan Luan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Yang Chao, Minister of Rites, to meet the envoys who paid tribute from Xinjiang.Among the tributes was a pair of suet white jade bracelets that were crystal clear, and the embossed phoenix patterns on them were also ingenious. Yan Luan smiled after seeing the bracelets: "This one is quite suitable for the queen."
Zhao Ying didn't say anything at the time, but the tribute presented to Zhao Xuan by the Ministry of Rites the next day did not include the pair of mutton fat white jade bracelets.Yan Luan knew in her heart that Zhao Ying deliberately took the jade bracelet away in a fit of anger with him, but she couldn't tell Zhao Xuan, so she could only pretend that she didn't know about seeing the jade bracelet.Unexpectedly, Zhao Ying gave this pair of jade bracelets to Feng Ming.
Yan Luan withdrew her thoughts and said to Feng Ming: "This bracelet is precious and rare, you should keep it as a dowry for yourself."
Feng Ming said: "I don't want to marry, I will serve the master all my life."
Yan Luan said: "Nonsense again, how can a girl not marry. After a year or two, I will help you find someone in the court..."
Feng Ming said: "Sir, don't drag your words away, let's talk about the bracelet. This bracelet is precious, and it would be a waste to put it in the hands of a girl like me. Second, if people see it, they say that even girls in our house have such bracelets. Fine jewelry doesn't fit either."
Yan Luan heard that what Feng Ming said made sense, so she nodded and said with a smile: "I used your silver last time, and this time I used your jade bracelet. I owe you more and more."
Feng Ming also smiled and said: "Not to mention that this bracelet was originally rewarded by the emperor, it should be returned to the royal family now. I am the master's servant, so my things naturally belong to the master."
Neither the master nor the servant expected that this mutton fat white jade bracelet would cause a disturbance.
This morning, Xie Zihu presented a sandalwood box to Zhao Ying and said, "Your Majesty, this was delivered to my residence by the Yan Mansion yesterday, and it was said that it was a marriage gift from Lord Yan to His Highness the Second Highness and the little girl. After reading it, I , I found that this was actually the mutton white jade bracelet that Xinjiang paid tribute to in the eighth year of Xintai. I remember that when the Xinjiang envoys presented all the tributes to the Ministry of Rites, they had this pair of bracelets. But the Ministry of Rites presented it to the late emperor the next day, and the bracelets were It's gone, but I don't want it to be in Yan Luan's hands. Please ask the emperor to find out what happened."
Yan Shuang took the box and presented it to Zhao Ying.Zhao Ying reached out and took out a bracelet. After a closer look, it was indeed the pair from back then.Then he also remembered what happened before, and couldn't help but smile while watching.
Yan Luan didn't expect Xie Zihu to remember the events of the year, so he got out of the class and knelt down, saying: "Your Majesty, I saw the exquisite jade bracelet that day, so I became greedy and took the jade bracelet for myself. This matter is true. I ask the emperor to punish me for my fault."
Zhao Ying glanced at Yan Luan who was kneeling, and said, "Master Yan, you should get up and talk first."
After Yan Luan got up, Zhao Ying said to Xie Zihu: "Old Xie, you and I are going to be in-laws. Mr. Yan kindly sent you a congratulatory gift, and you have to come to me to complain. Don't you want to know the whole story? Okay, Let me tell you. I took the bracelet that day and rewarded one of my girls. Later, I gave this girl to Mr. Yan, and the bracelet naturally followed into Yan's mansion. What's the matter, do you still want to punish me for my crimes? ?”
Xie Zihu didn't dare to say any more, so he had to return to the class.
